does it become a larger defensive argument over the next few days? it will be interesting to hear. >> one of the big disputes between the parties when it comes to polling is will the president's base be energized? african-americans, hispanics, young people and if the storm affects that at all? >> i think they are energized. i spent the weekend in florida doing early voting push. and the numbers there are at the level -- early voting numbers of '08. i've been in ohio. so i think this myth that there's not a lot of enthusiasm in the base is being exposed by the numbers. the numbers don't lie. and i think they're going to be further energized by seeing how the president handles sandy and if the message gets out there, that's why we need jobs programs. that's why we need infrastructure. i'm going to keep hitting that. you cannot look at the structural decay in new jersey, connecticut, new york and not say, those are not opportunities also to create jobs, and we need infrastructure development. >> a lack of preparedness. >> absolutely. >> the newspaper re

we need to play a lot of defense. they can't win ohio so they're looking for another place so we have enough money to make sure nothing goes wrong. the president is not going to win these battleground states by the same margins he won by last time. there's a natural tightening here. most select republican governors two years ago and so the president would be happy winning these states by two or three points. >> michigan, though, 2 1/2 points. john heilemann, it's a state we republicans stopped expecting to win when ronald reagan retired. it's like you usually put it in the pennsylvania category, do you believe mitt romney is within the margin of error in michigan? >> i tend to give it the benefit of the doubt. it's a good poll. it's a fine poll and it's close. i'm interested to see when governor romney or congressman ryan makes a are trip to michigan, you know, and that will tell you that they actually believe there's a chance of winning michigan. as of right now i think ann romney has been in michigan relatively rece

the department of defense is now sending hundreds of thousands of gallons of gas in. it's not just people filling up cars. they're getting gas for generators, to keep the heat on and refrigerators running, and it's getting cold. overnight last night, it dipped down into the 30s in the new york area, and people are living without heat. >> i just spoke with a friend of ours in the hall who lives in new jersey, and her generator is out of fuel. so there's no heat in her house. two kids in the house. and the question is how much fuel do we have left in the car? and making very difficult decisions about that. you know, i think -- i'm not sure about this. we're going to have to check the history, but staten island may be getting its very first visit from a cabinet member in history. it is the ignored borough. it is the place that's easy to forget in new york city. you know, it's 1,000 feet from new jersey. and it's five miles by water from manhattan. as staten island is happy to be ignored by new york city most of the time, it's never new york city's problem. it has the low
